    Chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and broccoli.

    Wife loved the chicken fried steak. The had to be given the recipe for a "Cosmo" but once she had it the Cosmo was excellent.

    Outlaw BBQ Burger, with house made BBQ sauce. Crispy onions and smoked Gouda cheese. Sweet Potato fries! Must get...

    Great place to have a decently priced meal, while you're gaming. The Staff is friendly and welcoming, the food is fresh even close to midnight.

    Boudin balls. Yummy!

    We go to Coushatta every year around this time and Terrace Cafe is where we always eat. The dinner is always wonderful. The breakfast is hit or miss. This most recent visit was a little disappointing because the breakfast was a bit too greasy. The pancakes were raw and the biscuits were dry. But, overall they have really good food.

    Crawfish Etoufee- yummy

    Honestly I was not impressed. I've been here a few times before to have breakfast and it wasn't great but I was starving and so excited to have Cajun considering I was in Louisiana, it was far from good. Rice was cold and hard as a rock. The etouffee was so fishy and all the wrong flavors. I don't recommend this dish. My tea was empty and never once did our server check on us or ask if we needed drink refills. The restaurant wasn't busy ( 5 tables maybe - at least 5 servers ) so I would think service would be up to par. Over all needs improvement in all areas. Until then I won't eat there again.

    Home style food with no complaints!! Service is usually pretty good. The gumbo and hamburger steak are my favorite! Chicken Fried Steak and Eggs are a good way to start your day as well.

    Chicken fried steak, mashed, corn & roll.  Good food!

    Wow. Great service & great food. Prices were moderate but we are in a casino so that's expected. Waitress was attentive & fast. Food was plentiful & delicious. Great job overall, thank you Terrace Cafe!

    This restaurant was such a breath of fresh air. It has a real small-town feel--one of those places…read morewhere everyone seems to know everyone, and it's honestly adorable. It reminded me of the kind of restaurants I grew up with as a kid in a small town. Just a simple, quaint little spot on the side of the freeway. We've been there twice now, and the food is great. We pass it all the time on the way to Coushatta in Kinder, and now we're kicking ourselves for not stopping in sooner. The vibe, the people, the food--everything just feels right. The whole place feels like it's straight out of Mayberry (for the younger folks, ask someone older and they'll tell you). My wife and I love to people-watch, and I swear we saw the pastor chatting with parishioners, the mayor and his wife shaking hands with folks, neighbors catching up on the latest gossip, and the PTA crew laughing in the corner. It was all just too perfect. The food is cooked the way it used to be in the old days, and it really brings back memories. Don't get me wrong--the restaurant itself is a normal, modern stand-alone building--but the feel inside, with the vibe from the waitresses, the customers, and the food, just exudes this wonderful old-time country charm. Allyssa was our waitress the last two times we went, and she's absolutely adorable. She's got the sweetest country twang and a natural charm that makes you feel right at home. She's very attentive, too. We had the fried pickles, the catfish dinner, and the fried shrimp. The iced tea is always fresh. They close at 2 on Sundays, so get there early for the freshest food. I'm no food critic, so I can't break down all the flavors for you--but I can tell you everything was good, and we left with big smiles on our faces. We'll definitely be back.

    The server we had was rude. Just because she screwed up and gave my mom the wrong kind of tea she…read morewanted, the server got mad, she brought us our ticket before we were even half way done with our meal, and she was mad faced the rest of the meal. This is not appropriate!

The waitress did get our order wrong, but she was very apologetic and friendly and made it right. Do me a favor, the next time management comes in to eat with their family, sit them at one of the wooden booths. I think they'll agree that they feel very awkward and the tables need to be raised to standard height. Now I know the correct answer when asked "Is a booth ok?", it's a hard no!

The interior is also big and very tidy! There was a small welcoming staff there to greet us. The grilled oysters were topped with chopped peppers and bacon bits - came out hot and the oysters were plump and big! Very very tasty! It was about 30$ for a dozen oysters - so quite affordable for the size of oysters. Great bite and starter. I ordered the Atchafalaya, which had fried catfish and crawfish etouffee gravy smothered on top. The rice was a bit underdone which made the over taste of the dish not as cohesive. The crawfish pieces were abundant, but slightly mushy. The sweet potato fried side dish that came with the dish was perfect though - soft interior and slightly crisp exterior. The portion size was huge and I wasn't able to finish the dish. I'd definitely recommend trying the oysters on the menu, and next time, I'll need to try the fresh oysters!
